Stars Sunday Million Final Table REPLAY
Can someone clue me in to what's the deal with these broadcasts? First of all, why are they showing a replay of last weeks final table, but with the cards exposed? And secondly, why are only 5/9th of the players' cards exposed, and the other 4 not shown??

Re: Stars Sunday Million Final Table REPLAY
They are showing it for for your entertainment and information. The reason for the cards being exposed is obvious: don't you enjoy watching poker on TV while you are able to see the players' hole cards?
The players have to consent to PS showing their hole cards. 5/9 means 4 players have not consented to their hole cards being shown.

Re: Stars Sunday Million Final Table REPLAY
They do this every week. They email all the final tablers & ask if they consent to showing their hole cards. Some do, some don't.
Without the majority of hole cards showing, it's not much of a spectacle, IMO.

Re: Stars Sunday Million Final Table REPLAY
Yeah, kinda cool, would be cooler with more showing. Why would anyone agree to show all interested parties exactly how they played the entire final table? I guess considering any final table is going to be shortstacked you won't give away too much information... but still, what's the advantage?

[/ QUOTE ] I allowed them to show mine last year, because I didn't think I had much to hide. I didn't bluff much at it (didn't need to, really) and this way, my friends can all watch how I played. I felt like it was being at a FT of a WSOP or WPT event, where they show everyone's hole cards. (obv mil FT brag post)
